Salicylic Acid 02%

I really liked this face serum it was a good addition to my skin care routine. It went on really well and absorbed into my skin easily. It isn't too thick and doesn't leave an oily residue behind. It has the added benefit of oligopeptide-10, egcg and horehound extract in one product. This serum really helped minimise the look of my pores and helped with blackheads. It gave my skin a much more even toned look and really helped lessen the break outs I get especially on my chin area. I used a moisturiser after and then did my make up because the serum is so lightweight it didn't feel like it clogged up my face or felt heavy. I would really recommend this product if you have oily prone skin or black/white heads.

This is a Salicylic face serum which you can use either in the morning or at night followed by any other serum you want to use and a moisturiser. I just use this with an SPF moisturiser and I find that my skin feels very comfortable all day. This is a great serum to use in the day under your make up because it is light and not sticky or oily and it does not make my skin look shiny. I like the texture of it as it does not feel like it is clogging up my pores or feel heavy. Since I have used this my skin is less oily and also less inclined to break out which is awesome. The serum is so gentle that it feels barely there so I would thoroughly recommend it especially if you have blemish prone skin. I have not heard of the Minimalist brand before but it is one to watch as this serum is really good quality for the price and it comes in nice functional packaging which is recyclable. I will be trying more Minimalist products as soon as possible.

Minimalist 02% Salicylic Acid Serum is fragrance free and has a watery consistency that is quickly absorbed with no oily/tacky residue. As well as the gentle exfoliation properties of salicylic acid to help control sebum and refine pores, the serum also contains oligopeptide-10 which is a bioactive peptide to inhibit p-acne bacteria and EGCG which is an active compound found in green tea and is a potent antioxidant that can reduce the key factors of acne, while white horehound extract helps reduce blackheads. The serum effectively controls my oil prone T-zone, leaving my complexion smooth, balanced, and mattified with zero irritation to my often sensitive skin as well as helping to control blemishes. * I received this product complimentary from Minimalist as a member of We Are Eves for review purposes
